Yes. Over the last few years the noise in the neighborhood has increased to the point where I looked for another antenna.
I took the tower down yesterday. I put the 40 DBZ north and sound one section down from the top. The top holds the 80 DBZ east and west. This way they are 10 ft apart and 90 degrees.
One of us taped the beams coax to the second section when we taped up the coax for the 40DBZ. So when I cranked the tower up today, it ripped the coax connector out of the lead that runs to the Mosely beam. ARRRGH! I got the tower all cranked up, secured and ready to get on the air, had no RX on the beam, Walked outside and found the coax dangling 60 ft in the air.
After I cool off, I will have to take the entire tower back down and repair it.
